Another worry.. occasionally feels like my eyes go cross eyed, but they're not?

Hello i'm back again with another worry. I've had this problem on and off since my anxiety first started actually. I have recently been to an opticians and nothing is wrong with my eyes, they couldn't see anything wrong. I understand anxiety can mess with your vision.

Basically, my eyes start to feel heavy, and all of a sudden it feels like my eyes are going cross eyed. It makes me panic so much. I ran to the mirror for the first time ever to look and they were completely normal. They didn't move, didn't look cross eyed.

Could it be potentially because they're strained? I spend a lot of time on the computer and also, watching television. Also, I didn't have much sleep last night.

I don't know if i'm overreacting or if I should genuinely be worried about this. when i experience it, it's so scary. So, I was wondering if anyone else has maybe had this before also?

I think I get this sometimes. Like my eyes are just over whelmed and just need rest. I just get a cold wash cloth or ice and lay down and relax with the cloth over my eyes. Works every time. I think it's a tension headache thing

I get this too. I blame it on over straining my eyes when I am anxious because I seem to 'see' more when I am anxious and take more in and feel like my vision can't take it if that makes sense. It can last a few seconds to a few minutes.

Spending a lot of time in front of screens and not sleeping well will definitely be adding to it. Those factors have been another big cause for me too.

Having a bad time with ees too. They feel extremely strained lately to the point I can feel cross eyed at the end of the day. I use a PC all day and use my phone lots too which won't be good. I feel nausea too at times. Panic about visiting optician due to health anxiety xxxx
